This gapped down and had volume on an opening down candle. I decided to short when it formed a mini bear flag at the vwap
Kunal got in earlier and was getting out as I got in
stop: 76.01 above flag area
Unfortunately, I got in with the wrong size. Not sure but this may be the ToS quantity field problem again. If you don't hit enter between putting in a new quantity and hitting buy/sell, it uses the old one and then changes the field value to reflect the text you input after it is too late.
sold some of the actual position into the spike
got out rest when it double-bottomed
Not at all happy with the size error, it really messes with my stats. I wish tradervue would let me mark trades to ignore for evaluating tag performance.
